A true geek would want to go to Niles, not for the leaning tower, but to
see the former home of Teletype Corporation, now the Village Crossing
shopping center. Some remnants of the Teletype Facility still exist as
parts of the parking garage. Yes, you too can stand on the hallowed
ground where the ink jet printer was invented. Breath deep in the aura
of the home of the TTY.

You could also go to the condo's on Wrightwood whose building formerly
housed the Morkrum-Kleinschmidt Corporation, which later became the
Teletype Corporation. ;->
